Jake & Ellie Hazel Young

Jake and Ellie have been in love since they first met on a flight from Boston in 1969. He was a rookie hockey player in the big leagues. She was a flight attendant. The attraction was immediate and profound, but their marriage couldn't survive the violence of Jake's career. Jake loved Ellie more than he had ever thought possible, but giving up hockey was as inconceivable as quitting breathing. He had to let her walk away. Twenty years later, Jake may be suffering from a neurological disorder, possibly brought on by the many hits he took during his hockey career. His medical crisis reunites them. With a month before they will hear Jake's definitive diagnosis, Jake and Ellie decide to embrace this second chance at happiness, trying to make up for the time they both deeply regret having lost. This is the moving story of the month they spend finding their way back to each other.
